Startup Over Lunch: Marketing Strategy in 60 Minutes to Fire Up Your Business.

Most business books are written for people who already have money, connections, and experience. This book is not that.

I wrote Startup Over Lunch: Marketing Strategy in 60 Minutes to Fire Up Yor Business for real people starting businesses from scratch who are tired of hype, confused by jargon, and eager to know the practical steps to marketing their business that actually work. My clear, no-fluff marketing insights cut through the noise with straightforward, honest guidance and tools you can use immediately to get moving.
